Commission cut-off dates reintroduced
AN annual cut-off date for all commissioning applications for airmen/airwomen has been introduced.

An exchange that’s really for the better
THERE are limited opportunities for airmen/airwomen to secure an overseas posting; however, there are greater opportunities for them to participate in overseas exchange programs.

When you’re entitled to your benefits
IF you resign from ADF service before turning 55 you can immediately take a lump sum payment of your Military Superannuation Benefits Scheme member benefit up to the amount that had accrued (including interest) at June 30, 1999.
The balance, anything accruing after that date, must remain compulsorily preserved, either in the fund (as a number of units) or in a rollover fund. Of course, this means MSBS members who joined after July 1, 1999, must preserve their entire member benefit.
